Grandpa
My father's father was known as "Big Meat." He lived to be 107 and he was still doing it!

A line from Grandpa [Standing outside in a fog]Where am I? I don't seem to be anywhere. If death is like this, I don't think much of it. Everything's gone. People, trees, birds, wine. Well, up yours!
My father's father was known as "Big Meat." He lived to be 107 and he was still doing it!
So when I was little, he taught me to eat at 11:00 in the morning, before the sun burns your head, and at 4:00 in the afternoon. Otherwise food is like poison that gets into your blood.
My father's father used to say, "To be fit as a fiddle, you have to piddle. To be fit as a frog, pee like a dog."
